Marilyn Manson Joins WGN America’s ‘Salem’

Marilyn Manson is no stranger to WGN America’s supernatural drama series Salem. After previously collaborating with composer Tyler Bates on the show’s opening title sequence, the singer is now set for a guest role in the upcoming third season, which begins production today in Shreveport, LA. Manson will play Thomas Dinley, a barber and surgeon who is the go-to man in Salem, from a shave and a haircut to being leeched, bled, sliced open or sewn up.

Salem, produced by Fox 21 Television Studios, reimagines the infamous 17th century witch trials in a world where witches are real, but they are not who or what they seem to be. Manson will join series stars Janet Montgomery, Shane West, Seth Gabel, Ashley Madekwe, Tamzin Merchant, Elise Eberle, Iddo Goldberg, Joe Doyle and Oliver Bell.
